It was just one of those mornings.  I needed a rest day, but I had the Q so I dragged myself out of bed and out the door.  After the rain soaked workout yesterday, my shoes were still drenched…so as I slid on my shoes there was a distinctive squishing sound and my socks were soaked. ContinueContinue reading “Back-Blast Thursday 09-03-2020 – “One of those mornings” at The County”

Things you will need. A coupon, running shoes, shoulders. You should return with 2/3 of them. SYITG

Its gonna rain tomorrow.   Who cares? You are fortunate enough to own a car, a towel, a house, and a change of clothes when ya get back to that house. Coupons, a little moseying, but no long sustained running.  Actually it’ll probably be easy. Come on out and get better at the Glorious Mutt.

Time to get some cardio and core in before we head into the Derby / Labor Day weekend. That sounds weird and kinda awesome. We will make the most of the Derby weekend and we will make the most of our time together at the Agony Thursday morning at 0530. We will run and weContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast Thursday 09-03-2020 – The Agony @ The County”

Complements of Meter Maid Who knew you could have so much fun at 5:30 AM on a random Wed! Where do I begin? Let’s start from the Beginning…I woke up at 4:45 ahead of my alarm because of some extremely heavy rain pounding down on my roof. I immediately thought today is gonna be oneContinueContinue reading “BB – The Foundry @ The County 9/2/20”

Have you completed your “Honey Do” list this week? If you completed IPC week1 you likely feel like it… We won’t repeat but expect a full body workout. Bring coupons, gloves, and running shoes. Rain not required. SYITG! Honey Do

Much like Diane Dukes, I am also at my 3 month anniversary in the gloom (today 9/2). Appreciate him volunteering to go first (8/27) and show me how its done. I will be adopting some of my favorite workouts and format from previous Qs tomorrow. Under threat of being hit by a coupon (Uncle Rico),ContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast Cloverfield @ ☘️The Garden☘️ – 9.3.20 – VQ NattyLite”

Tomorrow at The Abyss we will be doing a whole bunch of stuff that does not include BBSUs (did enough today to last the rest of the week). Can’t promise we won’t be doing other movements from IPC. We will need coupons please bring one! SYITG! Stick Up

T’was 5:20 on a Tuesday morning and YHC followed Jitterbug into the park with Deep Dish in the shotgun seat. Harbaugh pulled in just as we planted the flag. Today was already won by getting some guys out to the park this morning! The fog was so thick you couldn’t see the mass gather ofContinueContinue reading “9.1.20 BB IPC 2020 Week 1 @ Posh”

Come join me for a heavy WO at the County tomorrow. There will be many exercises with weight involved, so bring a coupon and gloves. We will focus on carrying coupons to each destination around the county. No running. It will be a good time. SYITG…Backflop Q

In your PreBlast you often put out recommendations for the WO, which 98% of the time go completely unknown because who reads PreBlasts?!? In the PreBlast I sent for Week 1 of the IronPAXChallenge I strongly encouraged anyone planning to attend to arrive by 0520 to stretch/loosen up before I walked through the WO inContinueContinue reading “IPC ‘20 Week 1: Inspector’s Gadget at 🍀The Garden🍀 9.1.20 BackBlast”

Completed the IPC this AM, everything hurts. But, not gonna let down the boys at The Tank tomorrow. No extra weight needed….gloves optional but our hands will touch the ground. SYITG….Jitterbug

Started off week 1 way better than week 0. I was on time and present-from there it went completely downhill. I did make one good decision as yesterday Jolly Rancher and I set the location for the playground since rain was in the forecast. The plan was to keep the electronics and the early arrivingContinueContinue reading “Pelican BB-IPC @ the County 8.31.20”

Thank Stick-up for picking up the Q when I completely disappeared for month, and skipped a Q that I forgot I had.  To make it up for that, I made sure to be there this time.  Weather was scheduled to be a severe thunderstorm.  Fit for Moms were getting ready for a turf war.  Didn’tContinueContinue reading “Backblast 08.31.2020 Incubator PK”

The tank was strong this morning.  The workout was set to be one that challenge those who are Merkin challenged, as myself.  With that being the case, the workout was a new version of a workout I titled the Tomb Raider.  Here is what we did: 5:30 disclaimer was given and rough guidelines were setContinueContinue reading “Backblast 08.26.2020 PK”

Come out to the County tomorrow and join the team of Tidwell & Cratchit for a workout that will work all of the body, including the lungs. Let’s be honest, Tidwell is running this show and I am just along for the ride. We have a workout planned that we hope the late John ThompsonContinueContinue reading “9/1/20 Pre-blast: Tidwell & Cratchit co-Q the Loco at the County”

They Came!  They Saw!  They Conquered!!! In this case “they” was Eto.  Having small crew didn’t distract.  After a small warm up, we took a mosey down to the portico for protection from any rain and started a routine alternating from lower body, core, upper body. With about 15 minutes remaining and no rain, weContinueContinue reading “Back Blast – The Silo @North Posh”

I couldn’t let the BB from this week at North Posh get out before I sent the one from last week so here I am! I haven’t been able to get to North as much as I would like to so it was great to be back. We also had Nino in the house soContinueContinue reading “Back-Blast – The Silo at North Posh – 8.24.20”

YHC pulled into the vets parking lot at 0510. For those of you who have been to my Qs lately, this is not normal. I noticed Diablo was in his diablo wagon meditating to death metal music. Mysterious drone man, he was there too. We may or may not have some random BigMo drone footageContinueContinue reading “8/31 BigMO at vets backblast”

This is pretty straightforward, we’ll be doing this WO tomorrow at The Garden. I’ll take care of the timer so all you need to do is show up…preferably a little earlier than maybe you normally would. I plan to walk through the details of the WO at 0525 so we can start right at 0530ContinueContinue reading “IPC 2020 Week 1 at 🍀The Garden🍀 9.1.20 PreBlast”

Have a total body WO planned.  Not as much running… I have alternate planned incase of rain to hold in portico to keep us somewhat dry. No coupons needed

My WHY is to promote the best in people so they have the confidence to pursue any venture. One of my goals as queue on Saturdays is to burn more than 1000 cal. According to my Apple Watch we achieve that! Strong effort from each and everyone of you! I’m proud to be your brother!ContinueContinue reading “8.29.2020 BB – The Fog @The Poshlands”

My WHY is to promote the best in people so they have the confidence to pursue any venture. Our hands will touch the ground, so if you wear gloves bring them. Our own bodies will be the only weight we need. Focus will be on form and cadence. Aye? SYITG, QIC Mr Kotter

Prior to this WO I claimed/did several things… Made it known we would NOT run up/down any of the hills at The Garden.Told Mr. Roper I would name this WO “Roper’s Return” if he posted today, which would be his 3rd post this week.I asked for several volunteers to help me move/set up a fewContinueContinue reading “Roper’s Return to The Baptizer 8.28.20 BackBlast”

It was fantastic to be back out at North County (aka Pleasantville) this morning.  It was clear, cool, light breeze, and zero humidity…kinda. It was cool to see a sort of random crew of PAX this morning with some PV / County regulars mixed in with Mud Bug (first post-Covid post!), Timeshare (downrange from ChapelContinueContinue reading “Back-Blast Friday 08/28/2020 – Tour of Pleasantville”

Come out at play at the O tomorrow.  I’m trying to think of some dumb things to do.   Weather looks to be a non-issue. I think the coupons are either broken, stolen, or covered in urine, so running shoes and gloves should suffice. Also, we’re gonna try a new Merkin I’ve invented: Kisses, OldContinueContinue reading “Pre Blast – Ruiner at the Original. Old Bay at the helm”
